Tottenham have added Fabian Ruiz to their list of potential midfield targets for the January transfer window, as the PSG star is expected to leave.
Tottenham might consider acquiring Fabian Ruiz from PSG in the January transfer window, according to Fichajes. Ange Postecoglou wants to bolster his midfield during the next transfer window, especially if Spurs can maintain their championship challenge, and the 27-year-old Spanish international’s experience is considered as crucial.
Tottenham have had a wonderful start to the season and increased their lead following their win over Crystal Palace on Friday night. The win over Fulham last Monday made Ange Postecoglou the first Premier League manager to accumulate 23 points after nine games.
They have since collected another three against Palace, and the manager will hope they remain in the hunt when the January window opens. There’s tremendous pressure on Tottenham to collapse in this title race, but so far, they have not shown any signs of it yet.

Hence, they may need a new midfielder, with Postecoglou also considering a young star like Arthur Vermeeren as a potential option. However, Spurs are now considering a move for 27-year-old Spanish international midfielder Fabian Ruiz, who has lost his place at PSG.
Teenage star Warren Zaire-Emery has taken his spot, and PSG might consider a sale of the 27-year-old Spanish international midfielder in January. There are other teams like Real Madrid keen on Ruiz, but the PSG man might look to join a club where he plays regularly.
At Tottenham, he might come in to replace Hojbjerg, but they must tie up a move early, considering their current midfield pair will jet off to the AFCON. Moreover, any
